Dialogue

Gebhard: Life back home is so peaceful. I wonder if Kaeya is still buried in work... Would he have some time to catch up and reminisce about the good old days?

Are you... retired?

Gebhard: Haha, not yet. I'm just waiting for the younger generation to grow into their roles. Once they do, I can finally step back and enjoy some leisure time of my own.

Gebhard: But... there's still a ton of field experience I need to put on paper. I want to pass on everything I know as systematically as I can.

Gebhard: Times are changing fast, so I have to keep learning at the same time too. I'm picking up new things too, right alongside the youngsters.

Gebhard: For example, back when we were learning how to fight with the musket, we always carried it at port arms, whether when marching or on guard duty.

Gebhard: We'd rest the musket on our shoulders, and when the time came, we'd then lift it up, push the butt snug into the shoulder, and take aim.

So... Why the change?

Gebhard: Probably because our muskets kept getting caught on tree branches when we were in the woods... It's a long story, really.

Gebhard: It's only been a few years, and now they're already experimenting with new stances — low ready, high ready, that sort of thing.

Gebhard: They've even started to use Maison Gardiennage's theory of dynamic angles to improve how we fight close-quarters.

Gebhard: Let me tell you, having to learn all these new things was a real shock at first. But I knew I had to keep up with the times, so I just kept my head down and trained as hard as I could.

Gebhard: Otherwise, I'd end up teaching the fresh recruits obsolete tactics. That'd be totally unacceptable!

You know Kaeya?

Gebhard: It's probably more accurate to say that I've gotten quite a bit of help from Captain Kaeya.

Gebhard: Despite its name, the light cavalry squad is no lightweight at all —in [sic] fact, they're a vital mobile unit within the Knights and a fearsome, unstoppable force. They're constantly deployed to "put out fires" on the frontlines.

Gebhard: Of the monster-clearing operations I've been on since I became a knight alone...

Gebhard: They've provided my squad with strong and powerful support over seven operations, from the second battle for the ridge north of Springvale to our initial recon of Stormterror's Lair.

Gebhard: And before Captain Kaeya, there was Captain Diluc, who was the same sort of man. Honestly? Those two were exactly what a Cavalry Captain should be. Perfect examples.

That's really high praise!

Gebhard: Yeah. On the other hand, there was also Feroux, the captain before Diluc... His stubbornness was a real pain in the neck.

Gebhard: And he never spared the manpower for something unless he'd get credit in return. No glory in something? You'd get scraps. Same breed as that scumbag Eroch.

Gebhard: The two exceptions are Ranged Company and Cavalry Company. These two know how to work alongside the rest — clean and seamless.

Gebhard: Feroux only cared about claiming the glory and padding his reputation. Made you wonder if he even realized there was a war on.

Yeah... That's not ideal...

Gebhard: So, when young Diluc was announced as Feroux's replacement, everyone cheered.

Gebhard: But even then, Diluc was always able to balance his fire and his manners without fault. He was just like this burst of elegant flame...

Gebhard: At his promotion ceremony, Diluc took the initiative to make a toast to Feroux before leading away his former men right in front of his very eyes.

Gebhard: We were all standing right there. I tried so hard to keep a straight face that I almost choked.

Gebhard: *sigh* If only I could have another chance to work together with these two outstanding lads one more time before I retire...

You have a good rest.

Gebhard: Thanks. You too.
